Amir Khan Breaks Ticket Records at MEN Arena

[southpaw_07]

What was the PPV buyrate for Tyson vs Peter McNeeley?

1.55 million PPV buyers, I know, crazy.

Oh, btw, I'm not American if that's what you assume, after all, the Americans are Brits who immigrated to the "land of opportunities", same breed

The Manchester MEN Arena’s record for first day ticket sales was broken yesterday when an unprecedented 9,000 out of approximately 22,000 available tickets sold within hours for the fight between WBA light-welterweight champion, Amir Khan and European light-welterweight champion Paul McCloskey.

The demand for tickets to this fight shows Amir Khan’s increasing popularity amongst the boxing fraternity. His opponent, Irish boxer Paul McCloskey is not even regarded as a big name challenger to the former Olympic medallist, who is trying to use this fight as against McCloskey at the MEN Arena as a pit stop for a possible bout against WBC and WBO champion Timothy Bradley this summer.
